Theres been at least 2 attempts to port Sense in the past. Both attempts were failures. That doesn't mean it isn't possible, but, even if it is done, HTC would probably be well within their rights to send a cease and desist and shut down the project anyway (because, I doubt that the license for...

remember, most people test speed by how fast quadrant runs. Best thing to do is to test them both yourself.

Yeah.. people need to stop looking at the indicator. Accuracy indicators are useless without proper RAIM/FDE implementations which the SGS is unlikely to have

This phone is approximately one year old now (so it isn't a new phone). It has a camera, but no flash. The GPS seems to be judged using GPS status or by how fast it locks, not by how well it actually performs. In regards to the quality of GPS there is so much debate over the quality of the GPS...

Personally, I've given up on the GPS.. Samsung should honestly be sued, but it is too expensive to do so. It has gotten better with newer ROM's, but, the sensitivity still appears to be a joke compared to my years old garmin forerunner. It may be good enough for some people who use it for...

It's called UNSTABLE/nightly for a reason (it isn't really tested at all). If your first reaction wasn't to switch ROM, you probably should be using stabilised roms.

It might be your rom.. What rom are you using? New ones (even stock) somehow feel better than the old ones

*facepalm* Start by reading the forums.. Secondly, start by upgrading your stock firmware to a late XW or XX. Go to samfirmware.com, they have everything you need

Simply run the apps on your phone as a blind test without knowing which rom is being run as it is. Just because quadrant runs faster doesn't mean games will run smoother, especially since it seems to only check avg performance, but not minimum or worst case performance. I might be wrong though...

Mods need to start closing some of these Quadrant threads, because, there are way too many. Quadrant scores are great, if you are simply chasing a placebo (or you want the opportunity to grow your ePenis). If you want a phone which is productive though, throw the benchmark in the bin and run a...

To be honest, none of us actually know what we are talking about.. However, I will say that in recent ROM's, I don't recall getting the occasional EXTREMELY LONG stalls. But that isn't necessarily due to the filesystem, that could be due to other changes. My advice is to stick to RFS simply for...

Even that probably isn't truly indicative of performance. Nvidia and ATI both "optimise" *cough cheat* on benchmarks. Nvidia may blitz ATI in a certain game, but another game might be optimised for ATI. 3D mark also doesn't go into enough detail about what its testing (similar to Quadrant)...

Just curious, but do you have a reference/bug link for that one?

Ok, if you only have 450 dollars, you are MUCH better off saving it then spending it on a phone whose value will depreciate rapidly over the next year, especially when NFC becomes more popular (which the Galaxy S doesn't support). In fact, if you wait 3 months, by then, it might cost $40 less...

Probably for the same reason there is no room called #hiltinailgun or #HDIdunehdmax. Because not many people want to talk about a phone 24/7. And the room would probably fill with people who are too lazy to read how to install a 3rd party ROM. And the end result would be simply sending them a...
